1. Graphing Quadratic Functions
Sign In
Recall that the graph of a quadratic function is symmetric about the axis of symmetry.
Point: (-1,9)
Explanation: See solution.
Recall that the axis of symmetry is the vertical line through the vertex. Let's plot the vertex, the given point, and determine the axis of symmetry.
Recall that the graph of a quadratic function is symmetric about the axis of symmetry. As we can see above, the axis of symmetry is the line x=2. Now, we will reflect (5,9) across this line. Notice that (5,9) is 3 units to the right of the line, so it reflection will be 3 units to the left of the line.
Therefore, another point on the graph is (-1,9).
